An agent of the Freedmens Aid Society,
DR.. ]. G. HaTtzell, participated in a discus
sion Of the rights of the negro, which arose
in the New York East Conference of the
Methodist church last week. The picture
which he presented of the present relations
of the two races in the South, and the pros
poets of their future relationship, are appro-
pirate for the consideration, not only of the
Methodist church, but for every thoughtful
man and woman who realizes the great prob
lem that is pressing for solution in the South.
The discussion arose over the recent refusal
of the Southern white Methodists to admit
Southern colored Methodists to the Chatta-
nooga Seminary. This has brought the
Methodist church face to face with the diff
Guilty that the Republican party is now fac
ing in its efforts to secure freedom of the
ballot for the black man. "Shall the negro
be admitted 10 full citizenship" is the ques-
tion pressed to the attention of the Metho-
oist church by the Nashville affair, as it has
been pressed to the attention of the great po-
litical champion of the freedmen by the af-
airs of Danville and Copiah, by the more
recent counting out of Congressman Smalls
of South Carolina, the last negro congress
man. The magnitude Of the question is not
appreciated, except by a few who have made
it study. EVERY twenty-four hours" said
DR.. Hartzell to the Conference, 'there are
500 blacks born in the South. That is as
though a ship should leave Africa every
night for America with 500 Africans on
board. In 1900 A. d., there will
be eight States in the South
which will be eight black republics
For the future of these populous states,
that their black inhabitants may be fitted for
the rights of citizenship. the preparation
must come largely from the North. The SEN
timent expressed at the New York confer
ence was that there is only one course, and
that is never to let the doors of an American
and Methodist university be closed to a
man because of his race, color or previous
condition Of servtude. There is another
sentiment that goes hand in hand with this:
That the rights of the ballot must never be
denied to any American citizen because of
his race, color or previous condition of servi-
tude. DR.. Hartzell relates that he said re
Gently to prominent southerner: I'm 1900
the negroes will elect negro Representatives
and Senators to 60 TO Washington" The man
clenched his fist and said, "They shan'tl This
isawhite mans state and white men are going
to rule" The last negro Congressman was
counted out last November. For the present
the boast Of the Southerner is true; the reali-
cation Of the prophecy of the friends of the
freedmen seems farther off than ever before.

The Governor Of Pennsylvania has desig-
mated Friday, April 22nd, as Arbor Day. In
Pennsylvania the observance of the day has
become an economic question. Speaking of
the day the Philadelphia North American
says that the idea of Arbor Day is to Offset
to some extent the clearing of timber lands
which is constantly going on. In Pennsyl-
vania the forests are rapidly disappearing
before the strokes Of the lumberman's axe,
and unless fresh forests are planted, in the
course of time-and as things are going, it is
feared that it will not be very long time
either-the hills now wooded win be as bare
as a western prairie. This state of things
would mean much more than a scarcity of
lumber. 1t would mean severe and constant
ly recurring droughts. 1t would mean some
very undesirable changes in climate, changes
which there is reason to believe have already
Mnegun. 1t has been hoped by the institution
of Arbor Day to avert the threatening disas-
ter in Pennsylvania. In Maine the necessity
of the observance is not so great. In most
parts of the State the woods are holding
their own very well. But in Maine the OBJ
servance of an Arbor Day will work great
and needed change in the appearance and
comfort of our homes and villages. The day
that Governor Bodwell shall designate should
be observed by planting trees in every city,
village and town, in every household that
enjoys the use of a front yard, garden or a
farm

The Governor General of Canada doesn't
seem to be enjoying himself. There have
been great many evictions from his estate
in Queens County, Ireland, and in conse-
quence the Irish are much incensed against
him. Threats of assassination have been made
against him, and he has become so alarmed
in consequence that extraordinary precau-
stions are to be taken to protect him when he
opens the Dominion Parliament this week.
Ordinarily spectators are allowed on that oc-
casion in the galleries, but an order has just
been issued that while he is present in the
Senate this year nobody shall be permitted to

THE DEMOCRATIC PERIL.
North American.

The results of the elections in the West
present some rather puzzling considerations
to the Democratic mind. That mind is wor-
ried over the prospects of the labor move
ment in 1888. In Chicago it perceives that
the United Labor party devoured the great
Labor ticket had 5000 more votes than the
Democratic ticket. In both cities, and also
in st. Louis, Republicans were elected. What
to do with the Labor party in 1888 will both
er the Democratic managers more than all
other difficulties put together. The fight is
to be made in New York, and if a Labor
candidate for President polls half the vote in
New York city that Henry George polled
there will be no doubt about the result.
Things may greatly change between now
and the national election, but the Labor par
ty cannot be expected to sink out of sight be-
fore that time. 1t will place national tick
ct in the field. and then the Democrats will
be in a deem. deem hole.

BAD RESULTS.
Boston TRANSCRIPT.

The abstract proposition that railroad
company shall not transport goods or pas
sengers longer distance for less than it
charges to transport them short distance is
that on which the Interstate commerce act
is founded. At first glance the proposition
seems fair enough, but brought to the test of
practical business operations, we see already
that its enforcement is fraught with untold
complications in the trade of the country
and must greatly enhance the price of bread
stuffs, provisions and clothing.
